UNABSOLUTION.JPG The United States of Stumbling Penguins is a huge, devout nation, remarkable for its complete absence of social welfare. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 250 million enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The small government is mainly concerned with Law & Order, although Religion & Spirituality and Defence are on the agenda. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 1%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Book Publishing, Uranium Mining, and Beef-Based Agriculture industries.

Teenage fathers are forced to join the army, a National Academy regulates grammar and usage, smoking is banned in public areas, and the mob and the police have recently had numerous clashes in the back alleys of Stumbling Penguins's cities due to the government's steadfast anti-casino stance. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is moderate. Stumbling Penguins's national animal is the Penguin, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the Rockhopper.

Stumbling Penguins is ranked 11th in the region and 12,559th in the world for Most Compassionate Citizens.
